Trifluoromethyl 1-carba(1-dethia)cephems

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to 1-carba(1-dethia)cephalosporin antibiotics, intermediates for the preparation thereof, to pharmaceutical formulations comprising the antibiotics, and to a method for the treatment of infectious diseases in man and other animals.
The 1-carba(1-dethia)cephalosporin antibiotics have the bicyclic ring system represented by the following formula wherein the numbering system is that commonly employed in the arbitrary cephem nomenclature system. ##STR1## The 1-carba(1-dethia)cephalosporins are referred to herein for convenience as 1-carbacephalosporins or as 1-carba(1-dethia)-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acids or numbered derivatives thereof.
The preparation of 1-carbacephalosporins and C-3 substituted methyl derivatives thereof is taught broadly by Christensen et al., in U.S. Pat. No. 4,226,866. Hirata et al., in U.K. patent application No. 2041923, teach a method for preparing 3-H and 3-halo 1-carbacephalosporins, while Hatanaka et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 24, No. 44, pp. 4837-4838 (1983) teach a method for preparing a 3-hydroxy-(.+-.)-1-carbacephalosporin.
Although many safe and potent antibiotics of the .beta.-lactam class are known and used clinically, the research into this class continues in efforts to find antibiotics with improved efficacy, particularly against microorganisms insensitive or resistant to the known antibiotics.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides 7.beta.-acylamino-1-carba(dethia)-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid antibiotics substituted at the 3-position with trifluoromethyl. The 7-position of these antibiotics is substituted by an acylamino moiety such as D-arylglycylamido or a heterocyclic-substituted oxminoacetylamino group. Also provided are pharmaceutical formulations comprising the antibiotics, intermediates, and processes for their preparation. Examples of such antibiotics include 7.beta.-D-phenylglycylamido-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-trifluoromethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid, 7-.beta.-D-p-hydroxyphenylglycylamido-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-trifluoromethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid, 7-.beta.-D-m-methylsulfonylaminophenylglycylamido-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-trifluoromethyl3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid, and 7-.beta.-[(2-aminothiazol-4-yl)-(Z)-methoximinoacetyl]amino-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-trifluoromethyl -3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid.

The 3-trifluoromethyl-carbacephems of formula (1) may be made by routes as set out in the Schemes set forth below. ##STR26##
The 3-trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy ("triflate" or "Tf") carbacephem starting material of Scheme 1 may be prepared by the method of Evans et al., U.S. Pat. No. 4,673,737, incorporated herein by reference. This 3-triflate starting material is first reacted with thiophenol under N.sub.2 in the presence of an amine, and preferably a tertiary amine such as triethylamine or diisopropylethylamine, to provide benzhydryl 7-.beta.-phenoxyacetylamino-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-phenylthio-3-cephem-4-carboxylate. The 3-phenylthio intermediate is then reacted under N.sub.2 with tributyltin hydride in the presence of a free-radical initiator such as 2,2'-azo(bis)isobuturylnitrile (AIBN) and heated, preferably to about 120.degree. C., to provide the 3-(tri-n-butyl) stannane intermediate as depicted. This tin intermediate is combined with a positive halogenating agent, and preferably bromine, to provide benzhydryl-7.beta.-phenoxyacetylamino-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-bromo-3-cephem-4-carboxylate. The 3-bromo intermediate is then heated (preferably to about 70.degree. C.) and is combined with a mixture of cadmium, cuprous chloride, dibromodifluoromethane and DMF to provide benzhydryl-7.beta. -phenoxyacetylamino-1-carba (1-dethia)3-trifluoromethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate. While DMF is preferred, other suitable compounds include those of the group having the formula ##STR27## wherein R' is hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R'' and R''' are independently C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, or together, with the nitrogen, form a saturated ring, such as pyrrolidine or piperidine. This intermediate is then acylated with di-t-butyldicarbonate ((t-BOC).sub.2 O), followed by treatment with a base such as LiOH to provide the 7.beta.-(t-butyloxycarbonylamino) intermediate (not shown). (Further details of this interchange of the t-butoxycarbonyl protecting group for the phenoxyacetyl protecting group can be found in European Patent Application No. 8836996.5, Publication No. 0301877, .)
The t-butoxycarbonyl (t-BOC) group and the benzhydryl ester can then be removed using known methodology, e.g. with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in the presence of anisole. The resulting 7-amino-3-trifluoromethyl nucleus intermediate is then N-acylated with an activated form of the desired 7-acyl group. In Scheme (1), the D-phenylglycyl group is introduced by reaction of the 7-amino nucleus intermediate with the t-boc protected anhydride of D-phenylglycine, formed with t-boc protected phenylglycine and isobutyl chloroformate, represented below. ##STR28##
Any remaining t-butoxycarbonyl protecting groups can then be removed by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid. While the phenoxyacetyl and t-butoxycarbonyl (t-Boc) groups were used as amino-protecting groups and the benzhydryl group as a carboxy-protecting group, one of ordinary skill in .beta.-lactam chemistry will appreciate that other carboxy and amino protecting groups will serve as functional equivalents.
The process in Scheme 1 is carried out under substantially anhydrous conditions which represents reaction conditions which are virtually free from water. Accordingly, solvents are dried prior to use in the process. Suitable organic solvents include methylene chloride, chloroform, methyl alcohol, toluene, and dior trichloroethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), dimethylpropylene urea (DMPU), hexamethylphosphoric triamide (HMPA), dimethyl acetamide, tetrahydropyran, dioxane, acetonitrile, diethyl ether, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethoxyethane, and mixtures thereof.
Free radical initiators are described in an article by Laird and Jorgensen, entitled "Free Radical Chain Reaction", J. Org. Chem., Vol. 55, No. 1, pp. 9-27 (1990), incorporated herein by reference. Suitable free radical initiators include AIBN, Bu.sub.3 SnH, Cl.sub.3 CBr benzoyl peroxide and others listed in the above-referenced article on page 19, under Table VI. Other initiators include photolysis, X.sub.2 wherein X=Cl, Br, and I (Schlecker, Henkel, Seebach, Chem. Ber. 110, 2880 (1977)), Oz (Russell, Kaup, J.A.C.S., 91, 3851 (1967)), metal salts (Toong, Yates, J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun., 205 (1978)), and esters of thiohydroxamic acids (Barton, Crich, Kretzachman, Tetra. Let., 25, 1955 (1984)).
The term positive halogenating agent is defined as being a compound having an electrophilic halogen, or in other words, the compound provides a halogen having a positive charge. Examples of such include e.g., SbF.sub.5, F.sub.2, IF.sub.5, BrF.sub.3, SF.sub.4, Cl.sub.2, HOCl, (CH.sub.2 CO).sub.2 Cl, N-chlorosuccinamide, Me.sub.3 COCl, NO.sub.2 Cl, SO.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, Br.sub.2, 1,3-dibromohydantoin, N,N-dibromobenzensulphonamide, HOBr, N-bromosuccinamide, C.sub.4 H.sub.8 O.sub.2 Br.sub.2, ICl, IBR, I.sub.2, N-iodosuccinamide, and 1,3-diiodo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin.
Scheme (2) below depicts the synthesis of compounds of Formula (1), using the method of Scheme (1), coupled with the use of a p-nitrobenzyl carboxyprotecting group instead of benzhydryl. ##STR29##
The trifluoro acetate salt intermediate is then treated with a mixture of N-methyl morpholine (NMM), (t-butoxylcarbonylamino)-3-fluorophenylacetic acid (NHt-Boc-FPAA), and 1-chloro-3,5-dimethoxytriazine (CDMT), to prepare the t-Boc protected intermediate. The intermediate is then treated with zinc and HCl, followed by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid.
Alternatively, the 3-trifluoromethyl carbacephems of Formula (1) may be prepared as depicted in Scheme (3). ##STR30##
In Scheme (3), the 3-triflate intermediate in an anhydrous organic solvent is converted to the 3-bromo intermediate by a displacement reaction using a bromide containing salt, preferably LiBr, in the presence of a hindered amine base. Bromide containing salts include alkali metal bromide, tetraalkylammoniumbromide, and tetraalkylphosphoniumbromide. A preferred hindered amine base is 2,6-lutidine. This 3-bromo intermediate is then converted directly to the 3-trifluoromethyl intermediate by treatment with a mixture of zinc and dibromodifluoromethane in the presence of cuprous bromide and DMF. The p-nitrobenzyl 7.beta.-phenoxyacetylamino-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-trifluoromethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate intermediate is treated with Zn/HCl to remove the p-nitrobenzyl ester group and is then re-esterified with allyl bromide. The phenoxyacetyl group is removed using known methodology, i.e., PCl.sub.5 /pyridine/isobutyl alcohol, to provide allyl 7.eta.-amino-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-trifluoromethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate hydrochlor ide. This intermediate can then be treated with an activated form of the desired carboxylic acid providing the 7-acyl substituent much in the same fashion as is depicted in Scheme (1). The 4-allyl carboxy protecting group may then be removed using known deprotection methodology, i.e., tetrakistriphenylphosphine palladium (O) followed by removal of the t-boc protected group with trifluoroacetic acid to provide compounds of Formula (1). As in Scheme 1, the amino and carboxy protecting groups used are illustrative, with one of ordinary skill in the .beta.-lactam art appreciative that other protecting groups may be employed.
In both Schemes 1 and 3, the 3-bromo intermediate is exposed to a mixture of a cuprous halide (Br,Cl,I), dihalodifluoromethane, either cadmium or zinc, and DMF or a group of the formula ##STR31## where R', R'', and R''' are as defined previously. It is believed that this mixture results in an in-situ generation of trifluoromethyl copper which reacts with the 3-bromo intermediate to form the 3-trifluoromethyl intermediate. Preferably, at least one molar equivalent of trifluoromethyl cadmium or trifluoromethyl zinc is present with the copper, so as to at least theoretically provide at least one molar equivalent of trifluoromethyl copper.
The displacement reaction in which the 3-triflate is converted to the 3-bromo intermediate is more fully set out in Scheme 4. ##STR32##
In Scheme 4, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined previously, while A is a protected amino or acylamino of the formula ##STR33## wherein R is as defined previously. The reactions take place in aprotic solvents such as those previously listed. The 3-triflate is combined with lithium bromide and preferably 2,6-lutidine. The mixture is heated to between about 60-70.degree. C., and preferably to about 65.degree. C. and is maintained for a time sufficient to provide the 3-bromo compound. The time for heating is preferably above 16 hours and more preferably is about 48 hours. Normally, the resultant products include a mixture of the .DELTA.2/.DELTA.3 isomers. The .DELTA.2 isomer may then be isomerized to the .DELTA.3 isomer by contacting the .DELTA.2 isomer with a strong base such a 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) or 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN). As disclosed, the 3-bromo compound is a useful intermediate for the production of compounds represented by formula (1). It should be understood, however, that the 3-bromo compounds themselves are useful antibiotics. Therefore, the 3-bromo intermediate may be converted like the 3-trifluoromethyl to form 1-carba(1-dethia)-3-cephem-3-bromo4-carboxylic acids or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. For example, in Scheme 3, the step of converting the 3-bromo to the 3-trifluoromethyl may be omitted to form (3-bromo)cephems.
The term hindered amine base includes both aromatic and aliphatic hindered amines. Aromatic hindered amines would include those with an alkyl substituent bonded to the aromatic carbon adjacent the nitrogen. Preferred substituents would be those larger than methyl such as ethyl, isopropyl, t-butyl, and aryl. More preferred aromatic amines would be those hindered amines with at least both aromatic carbons adjacent the nitrogen substituted with such substituents as C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyls and C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxys. Further, bicyclic and polycyclic amines can be used as long as at least one carbon adjacent the nitrogen contains an appropriate substituent. Aliphatic hindered amines may also be used and include tertiary amines such as diisopropylethylamine, ethyldiphenylamine, etc.
In one of its aspects, this invention provides 7.beta.-amino-1-carbacephalosporin compounds and salts and esters thereof useful as intermediates in the preparation of the antibiotics represented by formula (1). These intermediates are represented by formula (2): ##STR34## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.2 ' are as defined above for formula (1), the acid addition salts thereof and, when R.sub.2 is hydrogen, the alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and amine salts thereof. The 7-amino compounds of formula (2) form salts with common acids such as the mineral acids, e.g., hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, and phosphoric; and organosulfonic acids, e.g., methanesulfonic, n-butanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, p-toluene-sulfonic and naphthalenesulfonic. Such salts are used for isolating and purifying the 7-amino acids and esters thereof. The compound of formula (2) may also form salts with the alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, carbonates, and bicarbonates. Examples of such salts are sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium salts. Salts may be formed with amines such as dibenzylamine, cyclohexylamine, triethylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, and the like.
The 7.beta.-amino-1-carba-3-cephem compounds of formula (2) are N-acylated with a carboxylic acid RCOOH or a reactive derivative thereof to provide a compound of Formula (1). The N-acylation can be carried out by employing the general acylation methods used for the N-acylation of the cephalosporin nuclei e.g., 7-ACA and 7-ADCA. For example, the nucleus (2) is coupled with the acid RCOOH in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as a carbodiimide e.g., dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Alternatively the carboxylic acid can be converted to a reactive derivative of the carboxy group and the reactive derivative used in the N-acylation. Reactive derivatives of the carboxy group that can be used are the acid halides, acid azides, and acid anhydrides such as active esters formed with ethyl chloroformate and isobutyl chloroformate; phenylcarbamates; N-hydroxyimides such as formed with N-hydroxysuccinimide and N-hydroxyphthalimide; and those formed with hydroxybenztriazole (HBT); and like active carboxy derivatives. During the N-acylation, any free amino or carboxy groups present in the carboxylic acid RCOOH are desirably protected.

A further aspect of this invention provides a process of preparing a compound of the formula ##STR43## which includes reacting a compound of the formula ##STR44## in an inert organic solvent with a positive halogenating agent, preferably in the amount of about 1.0 to 1.2 equivalents, wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.2 ', R.sub.9, R.sub.10, and R.sup.t are as defined above, and X is fluoro, chloro, bromo, or iodo. The temperature range for the reaction is between about -78.degree. C. to room temperature (21.degree. C.), and preferably is about between -78.degree. to -40.degree. C.
This invention also provides a process for the preparation of a compound of formula (3) ##STR45## wherein R.sub.1 R.sub.2, and R.sub.2 ' are as defined previously and A is an amino, a protected amino or a group of the formula ##STR46## wherein R is as defined previously, by reacting a compound of the formula ##STR47## in the presence of a bromide containing salt such as an alkali metal bromide, tetraalkylammoniumbromide, and tetraalkylphosphoniumbromide, and preferably LiBr, and a hindered amine base, such as 2,6-lutidine, for a time and at a temperature sufficient to prepare compound (3). Further, the preferred temperature range is between about 21.degree. C.-70.degree. C., with about 65.degree. C. being most preferred. Also, the invention encompasses the above process including an isomerization step in which the .DELTA.2 isomer is converted to the .DELTA.3 isomer by exposing the .DELTA.2 isomer to a strong base such as DBU or DBN.
Further, the invention encompasses compounds of formula (3), per se. It should be understood that when A is NH.sub.2, the compound of formula (3) will form salts as discussed with respect to formula (2), and may be acylated likewise.
This invention also provides a method for treating infectious diseases in man and other animals and pharmaceutical formulations suitable for administration in the treatment method. The therapeutic method of this invention comprises administering to a man or animal an antibiotically effective non-toxic dose of a compound represented by formula (1) and, for that matter, formula (3), wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
The 1-carbacephalosporins provided by the invention form salts with suitable bases, in particular, the pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic salts. The carboxy group of the 1-carbacephalosporin can form salts with the alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, carbonates and bicarbonates. Examples of such pharmaceutically acceptable salts are the sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts. Salts also may be formed with amines such as dibenzylamine, dicyclohexylamine, triethylamine, ethanolamine, di-ethanolamine, and like amines. Likewise, when the 1-carbacephalosporin is substituted by two or more carboxy groups, di- and trisalts are obtained by conventional salt-forming methods.

An antibiotically effective amount is an amount between about 25 mg and about 2 grams. The compound, salt or ester, may be administered in a single dose or in multiple doses throughout the day. Treatment may continue for a week to ten days or longer depending upon the duration of the infection. The particular dose and regimen can depend on such factors as the weight and age of the patient, the particular causative organism, the severity of the infection, the general health of the patient, and the tolerance of the individual to the antibiotic.
The 1-carba(1-dethia)cephem may be administered parenterally, orally, subcutaneously or rectally. As with other .beta.-lactam antibiotics the method of this invention may be used prophylactically to prevent infections after exposure or before possible exposure e.g., preoperatively. The antibiotic 1-carba(1-dethia)cephem may be administered by conventional methods e.g., in capsules, tablets, suppositories, by syringe, or by intravenous drip.
The pharmaceutical formulations of the invention comprise an antibiotically effective non-toxic amount of a 1-carba(1-dethia)3-cephem represented by the formula (1) or formula (3) wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutical carrier.

Formulations for oral administration include capsules, tablets, lozenges, and liquid suspensions. The antibiotic or a salt or ester thereof in the form of a dry powder is encapsulated in gelatin capsules for oral use. The antibiotic may also be blended with an excipient e.g., a stabilizer prior to filling. Capsules may contain between about 100 mg and about 500 mg to provide unit dosage formulations.
Tablets containing between about 100 mg and 500 mg of the antibiotic or a salt or ester thereof are formulated by conventional means and may contain in addition a binding agent, disintegrating agent, stabilizing agent, antioxidant, etc.

The reaction was stirred overnight at ambient temperature. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (elution with 35:65 ethyl acetate/hexane) giving 33.45 g (90%) of a light yellow solid.
.sup.1 H NMR (CDCl.sub.3):.delta. 7.2-7.6 (m, 19H), 7.08 (t, J=7Hz, 1H), 7.05 (s, 1H), 6.90 (d, J=8Hz, 2H), 5.44 (m, 1H), 4.54 (s, 2H), 3.81 (dt, J=5, 12Hz, 1H), 2.0-2.3 (m, 2H), 1.7-1.8 (m, 1H), and 1.3-1.5 (m, 1H).
PREPARATION 2
Diphenylmethyl[7S,6R]-7-phenoxyacetamido-3-bromo-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-cephem-4-carboxyla te
Diphenylmethyl[7S,6R]-7-phenoxyacetamido-3-trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy-1-carba(1-dethia)-3-ceph em-4-carboxylate (150 g, 0.238 moles) was dissolved in 1600 ml anhydrous DMF and treated with 2,6-lutidine (63.8 g, 0.595 moles) and lithium bromide (121.1 g, 1.43 moles). The reaction was heated to 65.degree. C over 30 minutes and maintained at this temperature for 64 hours. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature and 75% of the solvent was removed under reduced pressure at 50.degree. C. The slurry was diluted with ethyl acetate/ether, washed with NaHCO.sub.3 (3.times.), 1N HCl (3.times.), and brine, dried over MgSO.sub.4, filtered through silica gel with 10% ethyl acetate/CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, and evaporated at reduced pressure until a solid started to precipitate out. A beige solid (34.4 g) was collected and upon further evaporation of the mother liquors, an additional 10.6 g solid could be collected. These two batches of solids were combined as both were the desired .DELTA.3 isomers (the titled product). The remaining liquid was stripped to dryness leaving 64.7 g of a mixture of .DELTA.2/.DELTA.3 isomers. The mixture of olefin isomers were equilibrated as follows. Dissolution of the mixture (64.7 g, 0.115 moles) in 675 ml anhydrous CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 was followed by treatment with DBU (4.7 g, 0.031 moles). After three hours at ambient temperature, the reaction was filtered through silica gel with 10% ethyl acetate/CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 and evaporated. The residue was dissolved in a small amount of ethyl acetate, diluted with hexane and cooled to 0.degree. C. This produced 17.6 g clean .DELTA.3 isomer and the remaining 39.4 g (from the mother liquor) was chromatographed on silica gel (eluted with a gradient of toluene to 30/70 ethyl acetate in toluene). This produced 31.5 g of a .DELTA.2/.DELTA.3 mixture, which was dissolved in ethyl acetate, diluted with hexane, seeded with the product and chilled to 0.degree. C. This gave 18.2 g of the .DELTA.-3 isomer leaving 14.2 g .DELTA.2/.DELTA.3 mixture. A total of 80.8 g of the titled product was isolated in a yield of 61%.
